Full Transcript

In the first coming of the Lord Jesus, why did the Lord come? He came to do one thing, to fulfill the will of his heavenly father. No one else, nothing else. He came to do one thing, to please his daddy, his heavenly father.

So on the first coming, he came sent by love. And because he was sent by love, he came to be the mercy of God for the entire human race, for the entire world. He accepted everyone and anyone who came and said, Lord, forgive me, I need you.

I want you to be my Lord, my savior. Whether that person was the greatest sinners ever to exist on the face of this planet, the Lord Jesus came to bring back what was lost. He did not come to judge, but to show mercy and save.

So the first coming was for salvation and redemption. This is why the Lord came very humble, very quiet. The first coming, he came as the lamb of God.

The lamb is very humble, very cute, very quiet. The shepherd says to the lamb, stop, stops, walk, walks, be quiet, goes quiet, says, whatever the shepherd says, the lamb follows. Why the Lord was the lamb in the first coming? Because he came to save, not to judge.

It's not that he is not capable of wiping Caiaphas. It's not that he was not capable of wiping Augustus Caesar and the entire Roman Empire. No, but he came not to destroy, but to save and bring back what was lost.

That's why he came as the lamb. Just like God is love, he sent forth his beloved and begotten son, only begotten son, to be the savior and the redeemer of the world. Just like there was a time for the Lord Jesus to come to save the world, so as there will be a time for the Lord to come back to fulfill God's justice.

So, in the first coming was love, the second coming is going to be justice. And when it comes to justice, you're talking about law. The law has no mercy.

You break the law, the law will break you. This is why the Lord's second coming will no longer be the lamb, the calm, quiet, and cute. No, he'll be the lion, roaring lion, and fire going forth before him and devouring everything in his path.

This quiet Jesus, this calm Jesus, no longer will be on the second coming. So, let me say to Satan and those who worship Satan, if you think that Satan is your God, if you think that Satan is the most powerful thing, let me tell you, Satan, when the Lord comes again, he won't even reach the level of a little mouse before the almighty Jesus Christ of Nazareth. And let me see the super elites, what are they going to do? What are you going to do when Jesus comes for you? People think they rule.

People think they are free, whatever they do. It is a deceitful statement by the serpent, Satan. No one is free.

No one. No one. If we just see again, a glimpse of Jesus Christ of Nazareth in his glory, then you'll understand, no one is free.

If any human being, I'm not talking about Christians now, I'm talking to all humanity, if any human being think that Jesus Christ does not exist, you're mistaken. If any human being thinks that Jesus Christ is not God, you are mistaken. Satan has deceived you.

In the next life, the only one you will see is Jesus Christ of Nazareth. This, by the way, has got nothing to do with Christians. There are so many Christians that have no idea who Jesus Christ is.

They have no idea. Just, they were born in a Christian family, they were baptized when they were babies, and they are, all they know, they're Christians. What do you know about Jesus? Nothing.

Nothing. Nothing. Big deal you're a Christian.

If you don't come to know the Lord one-on-one, in person, intimate relationship with the Lord, your Christian name means nothing. It will not save you. It will not get you to heaven.

What gets you to heaven, when you build that relationship with Jesus Christ and come to know him, come to know him, the Lord is not a duty. The Lord is not a task I fulfill. The Lord is not just a talk I give.

The Lord is not a song I sing. The Lord is life. You need to live him, live him, live him, live him.

Just like there was a time the Lord came with love and mercy, there will definitely be a time the Lord will come, but with God's judgment. And when he comes to judge, you will not see him being Mr. Nice Guy anymore. He won't even let you talk.

He won't even let you breathe. He will wipe everything before him. Oh, he is awesome.

Some people think Satan is scary, frightening, you believe you me is nothing. Boo! And he's gone with a boo. You make the sign of the Holy Cross, it will burn him, burn him, burn him, burn him.

Who can stand before the awesomeness of Jesus Christ of Nazareth? No one. John the Beloved, the one who used to put his head on the chest of Jesus. You ask John, when you put your head on the Lord's chest, what did you hear? He would say, I heard his heartbeat.

The only disciple that heard the heartbeat of Jesus Christ was John the Beloved. So you were this close? So you put your head on his chest to hear the heartbeat and you were not afraid of him? He said, no, he's my oldest brother. He's a father figure to me.

He's everything to me. I believe and I know he loves me beyond measures. John, the one who put his head on the Lord's breast, chest on earth, he saw him in heaven, but he saw him in his glory.

He said, I fell on the ground as if I were dead. John, what happened? It's the same Jesus. He said, no, no, no, no, it's not.

His eyes are a flame of fire. His feet are copper standing on fire and burning the fire. The fire was not burning him.

He was burning the fire and his voice was as like many waters. I got so scared, so frightened, I fell as if I were dead. Well, because John, the first coming, you saw him as the lamb, but in glory he is the lion.

What is the lion? King, the king of all kings and Lord of all Lords. And what does the king do when he comes? He judges. He judges.

So now, this angel said to the birds of heaven, eat everything, kings, flesh of captains, flesh of mighty men, flesh of horses and those who sit on them and the flesh of all people, free and slave, both small and great, eat them all. The second coming, people who will remain on earth would be 100% godless, godless. Well, we've been noticing in recent times, people are becoming more godless as we go.

But I must say one thing, we thank the Lord. It's still not the end as yet, because I personally can see so many people interested in the Lord and are coming back to the Lord. And let me tell you the good news, all glory to the holy and mighty name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth forever and ever and ever.

The majority of these people are young men and women. Hallelujah, man. There is no one greater than Jesus Christ of Nazareth ever to exist on the face of this planet.

Jesus Christ is love. He came on his first coming as mercy. See, you need to understand one thing about love.

Love is the most powerful thing ever to exist. And it is the most, the weakest thing also ever to exist at the same time. Love is the most powerful and the weakest at the same time.

Why? Because when you love someone from the heart, you will do anything and everything for that someone. If that love is received as weakness, then it's the ignorance of the other party, not the one who loves. But let me tell you, when the time comes, love can be also very, very powerful because love moves mountains.

See, you cannot change the heart of a person using force. You cannot change the mind of a person using the sword and threatening to beheading people. The only way you can change a heart of a man or a woman is when you show them and give them love, not power.

Don't ever misunderstand what Jesus is all about. Don't ever. And this goes to all the Christians, to all the Christians.

Let me tell you this, all of you, everyone. The Lord, no one else took me to heaven. Let me tell you, there is no Muhammad.

There is no Buddha. There is no Krishna. There is no one.

Only one, Jesus. Why? Because he is the only one. There is no one else but him.

He is God, revealed in the flesh. God, revealed in the flesh. No one else.

No one else. This is not judgment. This is not attack.

This is not discrimination. Believe you me, I love everyone. Believe you.

And if you don't want to believe, it's up to you. It doesn't matter. But I love you because my Jesus taught me to love everyone.

Let me tell you this, you will never ever find anyone in heaven except Jesus Christ. Buddhists, stop chasing Buddha. I can assure you, you can say Buddha was a nice man.

You can put as many oranges and apple in front of him. That will get you no way. Let me tell you, you can follow your three million gods, Hindus.

They'll get you no way. You can follow Muhammad. It'll get you no way.

The only one that truly is who he is, is Jesus Christ of Nazareth. And this has got nothing to do with Christians or anyone else. It's got to do with the truth.

This is the truth. Jesus Christ is God, the creator of everyone and everything, visible and invisible. That's all I saw in heaven, him.

I didn't see anyone else. Why would I make up a story like this? You know what, this story could get me into trouble, if anything, really. People might not like what they hear.

I'm not making it up.
